This document is a 510(k) clearance letter from the FDA for several electrodes (cutaneous, digital ring, cutaneous disc, and cutaneous ground electrodes). It does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving that a device meets those criteria. The letter confirms that the devices are substantially equivalent to previously marketed devices and can therefore be marketed.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on the input text. The provided document is a regulatory clearance, not a technical report detailing performance criteria or study results.

Re: K991769 Trade Name: Cutaneous (Bar) Electrode K991770 Trade Name: Cutaneous Ground Electrode K991771 Trade Name: Digital Ring Electrode K991772 Trade Name: Cutaneous (Disc) Electrode Regulatory Class: II Product Code: GXY Dated: May 21, 1999 Received: May 24, 1999
Dear Mr. Luich:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the devices referenced above and we have determined the devices are substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the devices, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your devices are classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), they may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your devices can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (OS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your devices in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your devices as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your devices to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your devices and thus, permits your devices to proceed to the market.
